"It's funny that the IOC and some of the nations in the West, in particular Great Britain, New Zealand, Belgium, have all tried to pass what equates to gag orders on their athletes. You're not allowed to say anything bad about China, about the Olympics, about anything, even if there is a real legitimate problem because It seems that everyone is just cowering and doesn't want to offend Beijing. The problem is, when we talk about a coming of age, when a nation has a coming of age, you have to start acting like an adult."

"Well, it's an issue of the Chinese government, it's also an issue of the Chinese people who are very invested in the Olympics, who see it as a coming of age for China. And so it's a balancing here. We think that it is very important to deal with the Tibet issue, but we think the best way to do that is through the kind of diplomacy we have been undertaking, not by the kind of frontal confrontation that is being suggested by some."

"I think we have sufficient forces in Afghanistan for this fighting season in 2008. We've deployed 3500 additional Marines there. The French have committed to send a battalion which will allow is to send additional forces to the southern part of the country. I think that there is a requirement to have more forces in the longer term, and, frankly, I'm confident that we will have lower force levels in Iraq in 2009 that will enable us to be more helpful in Afghanistan."
